There have been many books published about BMW motorcycles, but until now none has covered the evolution of the BMW sportsbike to the BMW café racer. A marque not commonly associated with the café racer scene, the growing trend of custom BMW café conversions is illustrated in detail with stunning images of sporting, racing, and ‘caféd’ BMWs. Featuring owner’s stories and technical descriptions, and showcasing fantastic BMW customs from all over the globe, from the old to the new, this book presents them in all their innovative glory.

He is most at home with BMW flat twins, on which he toured around Europe and New Zealand. The art of turning BMW’s into custom bikes always intrigued him. Uli is a long term resident of New Zealand and continues to produce new automotive books.
